Red: The Untold Story by Angela M. Hudson

Red: The Untold Storyby Angela M. HudsonGenre: YA Fairytale RetellingRelease Date: July 25th 2016Summary from Goodreads:A powerful new YA novel by award-winning dark romance author AM Hudson.Do not go gentle into the wolf's asylum...Once every twenty years, pack alpha Luther takes a new wife. On the day of Selection, Red is chosen. Just as her family always planned. Just as she always planned. Until she met Alex Plain.Alex took Red to worlds she never imagined, where the ordinary is seen as magical, and the upright is abstract. With the help of this new friendship, Red begins to see a future for herself outside of the pack. But, unfortunately, Alex Plain came along too late.Red is obligated to marry Luther now, and taken to live in the mysterious Ravenswood Mansion, where truth lies and the walls have eyes. What Red learns there about her alpha will ignite some burning questions—ones that, when answered, could undo the entire order of the pack:What happened to all the children born there? Why hasn’t this mansion left the seventeenth century? And where are all his previous wives?

The past few days have been super hectic and, because of that, I am yet to finish reading Red. However, I endeavour to finish it and get the review up as soon as possible.

I have read a few chapters and so far absolutely love it! Red is a great character who has already embraced her differences.

Also, the world building is brilliant. We are thrown straight into Red's world with no lengthy paragraphs about where she lives, but not once have I felt lost or confused. I really look forward to finishing this book!
